    8.1 Fuel Cool Fuel Pump issues

    I have a 2009 Sundancer with the 8.1. The paint in the fuel pump has come loose and clogged the injectors. Fuel rail is full of paint too. Question 1: Pump appears to be in good condition. Can I just remove the paint and run it with no internal paint? Question 2: Can I replace it with a Volvo...

    8.1 Won't stay running...Ignition coil not working properly

    Don't believe that it is an injector. If it had a distributor, I would say the timing was way off. I have new cam and crank sensors on order. I will give them a try. If not, I have some spare parts.

    8.1 Won't stay running...Ignition coil not working properly

    Cheapos but new. Not rebuilt. Does the computer need to be reflashed for the new injectors?

    8.1 Won't stay running...Ignition coil not working properly

    I have taken the fuel pump apart but saw no paint problems. Perhaps when I checked the fuel pump I accidentally got some dirt in the line. Thought I was careful but maybe not. Leaning toward cam or crank sensor. Hate spending on parts that weren't the problem.

    8.1 Won't stay running...Ignition coil not working properly

    It was running fine except I was down 1 cylinder. All I did was change the alternator and the injectors. Do you think the high voltage damaged the crank sensor again? Only 200 hours on the engine.

    8.1 Won't stay running...Ignition coil not working properly

    I have a 2009 270 Sundancer with the 8.1. Engine build date is July 2007. Now on it's 3rd crank sensor. The engine was running but down one cylinder. Also the Alternator was showing 17 volts and an alarm was going off. Ordered a new alternator and while waiting pulled the fuel rail and...

    "Anti Siphon Valve" location 270 Sundancer 2009

    Got it. What an idiot I am. Removed the glued in carpet in the aft sleeping area. Found a removable panel that was glued and screwed down. After a couple of hours of struggle with the panel I exposed the gas tank. No anti siphon valve to be found. Decided it was behind the generator. Removed...

    "Anti Siphon Valve" location 270 Sundancer 2009

    Can't follow the line because in goes under the generator mount. I see the general direction the line goes but can find no access panel to the gas tank area.

    "Anti Siphon Valve" location 270 Sundancer 2009

    Can't get my gas line to flow any gas at all. Fuel tank is 100% full. I see in the manual that the anti siphon valve is located on the fuel tank. Problem is that I can't figure out how to access the tank. Hopefully the access isn't behind the generator. Also if anyone has any other ideas as to...

    Cool Fuel Fuse

    You are right Mr Espos4. When my wife turned on the key the pump would run for about 2 seconds. Not pulling fuel though. I did fill the filter area. By the way, the filters looked like they were never changed so I was hoping this was the problem. New filters did not help. Fuel tank is full...

    Cool Fuel Fuse

    The only wiring diagram I can find is in my SeaRay manual. It does not give me any Mercruiser wiring info. Have tried searching for other schematics unsuccessfully. Tomorrow I will have my wife turn on the key while I am in the bilge to see if the pump comes on for a couple of seconds.

    Cool Fuel Fuse

    I have traced the wire (pink with yellow stripe) from the module to the relay. If I put 12 volts to that wire the pump will run. With the key on I have 2 prongs with 12 volts the prong going to the module and one more prong showing nothing. No ground or voltage. Color is green with black...

    Cool Fuel Fuse

    Was just looking at the schematics. There is a fuel pump relay somewhere. Perhaps one of the relays on top of the engine. All good questions that I will pursue tomorrow afternoon. I am using the plug that plugs into the module to test for 12V. I will check to see if the ground wire is actually...

    Cool Fuel Fuse

    I have 5 relays on top of the engine but don't see anything that looks like a fuse or fuses. I do have spark because it tries to fire with what is left in the fuel lines. Trying to find something in the schematic but they are a little intimidating to me.

    Cool Fuel Fuse

    I have a 2009 270 Sundancer with the 496. It has no voltage going to the cool fuel module. Key is on. Have traced the wires as far as possible but can't find the location of the fuse. I have searched this forum and others. No fuses where they say. Thanks for looking. Bu

    8.1 Won't crank

    Good news. Finally found it. It was the middle group of wires on the PCM. That plug was about an 1/8 of an inch higher than the outside 2 plugs. Pushed on it and was rewarded with a nice click. Now everything works including the trim, gauges and starter. Thank you all for your help. Beer and...

    8.1 Won't crank

    Guess I should clear up what I said. Now that I think it through. No power to trigger starter solenoid.
